GQ8A0256R0GT Description

The GQ8A0256R0GT from TT Electronics/IRC is a high-performance 8-resistor thin film network designed for precision applications. Housed in a 16-pin QSOP ceramic package, it features 56Ω resistance per element with a tight 2% tolerance and ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring stable performance across a wide -70°C to +125°C operating range. The isolated (ISOL) circuit design allows independent resistor functionality, while the 0.1W (1/10W) power rating per resistor and 0.75W (3/4W) total power rating make it suitable for demanding environments. Its 100V maximum voltage rating and gull-wing SMD termination ensure reliable surface-mount integration.
